Destination weddings have no season, you can go abroad and get married anytime. Couples usually choose warm or even tropical locations like Mexico, Vietnam, Bali, Thailand, India or Spain. I’d like to inspire you with one more cool idea to consider: Greece. More and more couples choose this beautiful country with antique traditions to get married, and that’s not surprising: Greece has a lot of places of interest, beautiful nature, stunning sea and hearty people. Santorini island is the most popular Greek location because it’s a beautiful white place in the blue and turquoise sea. Let’s have a look at some Greek wedding ideas.

Location

Blue, turquoise and white are characteristic colors of Greek islands, and you can highlight them choosing attire and décor in the same shades. Ceremony spots and receptions with a stunning sea view will excite everyone!

Other Ideas

Blue, turquoise and white are traditional colors of Greek islands, there are houses, gates and roofs in these shades. You can highlight them even more using the same colors in your wedding color palette. Use olive leaves instead of confetti, give paper or wooden fans as favors to your guests; fresh olive oil or soap can be another great idea.
